As exciting as relocating to Switzerland might be, it can be equally stressful, which is why any prospective expats should enlist the services of a reputable relocation company. Relocation companies are an all-in-one solution to unforeseen problems, paperwork hiccups or practical concerns. While traditional removals companies generally only offer services limited to transport and shipping goods, relocation businesses provide comprehensive mobility and relocation solutions.
Their support prepares expats before their departure, helping them understand culture shock, with focus on the German, French, Romansh and Italian languages. These firms also assist in finding clients a new home, as well as negotiating leases and arranging utility hook-ups. Families with kids receive personalised school selections and visit support. Relocation companies may even offer their clients neighbourhood orientation programmes upon arrival.
Here is a selection of several relocation firms in Switzerland that expats should consider.
